I Almost Give Up
Blog #268
June 05, 2022
Blogging is now part of my everyday life and I know some of you who have followed my journey here know that I tried to join other blogging platforms like Blurt and Hive. I joined Blurt two weeks ago and within that two weeks, I enjoyed sharing the photos that I have captured using my phone, about my daily life and other things.
Within two weeks I gained 7 followers. These followers are my friends in the Telegram group where sis Jeansapphire added me and I also followed them back together with the communities where I can showcase the photos in my gallery. I was also able to earn 32 BLURT and I'm truly grateful for it. I thought that it was so hard to earn here but I was wrong. As long as there are people who guided us and we are willing to follow the things that they said, all things will be just easy.
I join Hive last 2 days ago through Ecency. When I created my account, I immediately made I draft of my introductory post but the problem was, that I can't upload a photo. Knowing that I can't be able to upload, I just leave my account for how many hours and try to figure out another way how I could post in Hive. Then I remembered one conversation that we have with sis Jeansapphire39 about the account in Hive wherein we can use one account in PeakD, Ecency, and Hive. So I tried using PeakD and for me, PeakD is better to use because it's easy to navigate. In PeakD, I successfully post and comment.
But did you know that I almost give up in my two days in Hive? Too early right? Here's the reason why?
I posted my second blog in Hive this morning. I'm not expecting to get an upvote in my post because same as my introduction, I only got one upvote since the last day. I just leave it there because I can't interact yet because as a newbie, our actions are still limited.
Then at noontime when I visited it, I received a notification from someone that commented on that post. I was excited to open it but felt down after. Its comment says, "My post was ranked low by other users" and reading that made me down. I was asking myself, is it the reason why no one notices my blog or no one upvoted it? I was really having negative thoughts at that time and told sis Jean that I will just focus first here in read and not on Hive. But she told me that I just have to continue posting.
(The user who commented on my blog is muted already in the community where I submitted my blog this morning and now I can't see that comment anymore)
This afternoon after having my short nap, as I visited my account again, the down feeling that I felt suddenly vanished. I was happy to see that someone visited my post, reblogged, and upvoted it. It may not that big but that is already enough to lift my fighting spirit high.
I also got my first achievement in Hive. It's so nice to see that I am taking a little progress there. All things that I received and achieved in Hive, I owe all to my Telegram friends, especially to @Jeansapphire39 who always encourages me, to sis @CinDee08 for reblogging my introductory post this afternoon, and to sis Chichi in Telegram who delegated HP to me last night. Without their support, I am just a nobody in Hive.
Closing Words:
"In every step towards achieving success, there are always some rocky roads to take before we reach the peak of success. What we need to do is to be strong and surround ourselves with positive people who will encourage and lift us. Surround ourselves with people who believe in us and are willing to lend a helping hand."
Thank you my dearest sponsors for the continuous support. I really appreciate it and I hope and pray that your wallets will be filled with more blessings. God bless you all.
This is me @BCH_LOVER once again. Thank you for spending time reading my article today. Have a good day and a blessed evening read.cash family.
Thank you. Keep safe y'all!
